Why Choose KINTEK's Protective Manual Lab Hydraulic Press?
Our lab presses are designed with the researcher in mind, offering a compact, efficient, and safe solution for sample preparation across various industries.
- Enhanced Safety: Operates with better protection than regular tablet presses, featuring a robust safety protection cover made from shock-proof Polymethyl methacrylate. Ideal for brittle materials, super pressure applications, and labs with high safety requirements, meeting European and American safety standards.
- Precision & Efficiency: Equipped with a pressure gauge featuring a double pressure indicator (saving conversion time) and an optional digital display for pressure control accurate to 0.01MPa. Prepare samples suitable for infrared (15-24T models) and fluorescence spectrometers (24-40T models) with confidence.
- Versatile Applications: Widely used in material research labs, pharmacy, catalytic reaction studies, ceramics, and electronic industries. Its compact footprint allows for easy portability and operation within vacuum glove boxes for specialized processing. Can be equipped with heating plates for hot press functions.
- Durable & Reliable Construction:
- Chrome-plated cylinder: Ensures smooth surface, rust prevention, and excellent sealing with no oil leakage.
- One-piece mainboard structure: Integrates oil pool, mainboard, and oil cylinder, eliminating seal connections to reduce oil leakage points.
- High-quality dies: Made from Japanese high-speed steel for superior hardness, no deformation, and long service life.
- User-Friendly Design: Features like electroplated countersunk head hexagonal screws (beautiful and space-saving), an all-aluminum alloy handwheel (practical and durable), and an externally located oil pool for easy oil replacement enhance the user experience.
Key Features & Design Advantages
Our Protective Manual Lab Hydraulic Press incorporates thoughtful design elements to maximize performance and longevity:
- Superior Mold Compatibility: Suitable for brittle material molds or those requiring super pressure.
- Dual Indicator Pressure Gauge: Saves time by eliminating manual pressure conversions. Digital display option for enhanced accuracy (0.01MPa).
- Optimized for Spectrometry: 15-24T models produce samples ideal for infrared spectrometers; 24-40T models cater to fluorescence spectrometer requirements.
- Essential Safety Shielding: The Polymethyl methacrylate safety cover is crucial when working with brittle materials or under super pressure conditions, offering shock and crack resistance.
- Aesthetic and Functional Top Plate: Uses electroplated countersunk head hexagonal screws for a clean, space-saving design.
- Leak-Proof Cylinder: Chrome-plated cylinder with a smooth, rust-proof surface and high-quality rubber ring seals prevent oil leakage.
- Integrated Mainboard: The oil pool, mainboard, and oil cylinder are a single unit, minimizing potential leak points.
- Robust Spring Mechanism: Extended pulling spring offers excellent rebound and durability, allowing 30mm cylinder return without deformation.
- Durable Handwheel: All-aluminum alloy handwheel is beautiful, practical, and resistant to breakage.
- Glove Box Compatibility: Small size, light weight, and no oil leakage make it perfect for use in controlled environments like glove boxes.
- Premium Die Material: Dies crafted from Japanese high-speed steel ensure high hardness, resistance to deformation, and extended service life.
- Convenient Oil Management: External oil pool for easy oil replacement, with a hydraulic oil filtration device integrated into the oil circuit.
- Specialized Plunger Seal: Custom sealing structure provides an excellent, leak-proof seal.
- Ergonomic Pressurizing Device: Positioned at the lowermost corner of the mainframe for optimal angle and reduced effort, preventing tilting.
